Oblivious transfer (OT) is an important cryptographic primitive. Any multi-party computation can be realised with OT as building block. XOR oblivious transfer (XOT) is a variant where the sender Alice has two bits, and a receiver Bob…

The safety of a quantum key distribution system relies on the fact that any eavesdropping attempt on the quantum channel creates errors in the transmission. For a given error rate, the amount of information that may have leaked to the…
